Photosmart 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 is connected but Windows says that it is not
I'm changing the name of the printer. It is clearly linked because I can scan and print. But when I try to change the printer properties or preferences, Windows indicates that printer properties cannot be displayed, check the name of the printer and make sure that the printer is connected to the network. For some reason, there are two heads displayed outside the printer.
Hi @Draftsman,
Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!
I see that you are unable to rename your printer HP Photosmart 6520 in devices and printers. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution" if I helped successfully will solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.
I understand the frustration you feel. What I see, it seems that the printer is shared from another computer on the network and you do not have sufficient permissions to rename the printer.
If you have shared the printer from your computer, you will get another warning indicating that the printer is shared, which is not what you have received.
The two heads human icon tells me that the printer is shared on the network. If this printer is set up wireless you have no need to share the printer in this way.
If the printer is shared from another computer on the network, this computer would need to rename it.
If you are not sure and the printer is wireless, add the printer and do not select the option to share the installation,
If you need assistance, please let me know the instructions above. Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

I can't print to our hp officejet printer range 4630. The printer says that it is connected to our home wireless network. However, he said that it is inactive or not connected to the network on my mac. The only way it will print sometimes is if I switch to a wireless network that is named the same as the printer. AirPrint does not work. We have a Linksys router. Not sure if this is the problem or not. I ran all kinds of diagnostic impressions on the printer and all say that it is connected. I also tried to put the ip address into my web browser and it does not find the printer when it is connected to our home network. Help, please!
Thanks for trying my earlier recommendations. In my view, the problem you are experiencing may be with your wireless router. Normally, I would have you make sure that it is configured correctly, but you cannot access the built-in Web server.
I want to try to set a static IP address, so we can try to get in the EWS. Please continue here: printer does not maintain the wireless connection
A little luck? If you were able to set a static IP address, please try and access the built-in Web server. Follow the steps below:
1. open EWS (use my earlier recommendations) printers
2. go to the Network tab
3. network protocols
4. Select enable IPv4 ONLY
Now with IPv4 enabled, you should be able to print wireless.
If this isn't the case, you will need your router company to make sure that the multicast is enabled, Hello Protocol is enabled, mac filtering is disabled and ask them to check if there are updates the firmware for the router and the router's firewall check to make sure that it does not obstruct the communication
The following ports are also used by your HP device and may need to be opened on your firewall configuration
Incoming (UDP) ports are ports of destination on the computer while outgoing ports (TCP) are ports of destination on the HP device
Incoming ports (UDP)
137, 138, 161, 427
Outbound ports (TCP)
137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500
The ports are used for the following functions:
Print
427, 137 161 UDP ports
TCP port 9100
Download of photo card
137 138 427 UDP ports
TCP 139
Scanning
427 UDP port
TCP 9220, 9500
Faxing
427 UDP port
TCP port 9220
Installation of device HP

Any change? I appreciate your persistence!

I have three computers with Windows 7 Home Premium installed recently and works well. I want to create a homegroup. When I try to join one of the computers to an existing homegroup, I get the message "your network must have IPv6 enabled connection". I have tried the stop and restart, TCP/IPv6, but I can't the homegroup to work. I cut off all firewalls. How can I verify that TCP/IPv6 works, and how I can fix this problem if it is not.
The homegroup on two other computers worked without any problems. All are connected by ethernet cable to a Verizon FiOs router. The computer problem has no other problem of connectivity - internet and e-mail work correctly. I also see the computer of 'bad' on the map of the network on the part of others.
Hi SandyGrim,
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site.
one) that you get an error message? If Yes, what is the exact error message?
I would like to explain that IPv6 has been dependent on the NPRI (redundant network routing protocol) service. To resolve this problem, we will see the following steps.
Step 1:
Temporarily disable the firewall and third-party antivirus on the computer for a test.
Step 2:
Check the relevant services are enabled.
1. click on "Start", type "services.msc" (without the quotes) in the search bar and press ENTER.
2. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.
3. right click the "Peer Networking Grouping" service and choose Properties.
4. Please check if the service is started; If this isn't the case, please click on the Start button and see if it works.
5. you can also choose automatic next to startup type.
6. click on OK.
7. repeat the above steps with another service: PNRP Machine Name Publication Service.
Step 3:
Modify the key to register IPv6 to enable IPV6
Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 322756
1. Click Start, type regedit in the search bar and then click regedit in the list programs.
2. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
3. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\TCPIP6\Parameters
4. check if the "DisabledComponents" registry key exists. If so, move on the next steps.
5. double-click "DisabledComponents" registry key and change the value to 0.
(If the key does not exist, please create the above key and assign the value 0)
6. exit the registry editor and then restart the computer.
For more information, we can refer to the link below:
Homegroup get a must have IPv6 active fault
To disable IPv6 check the article mentioned below.
How to disable certain Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) components in Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008
